Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our pressure washing services, including cleaning frequency, pricing, and methods. Learn how we ensure safe, effective cleaning for your home and what to expect from our services.

House Washing

Is Pressure Washing Harmful to My Home?

Pressure washing can potentially damage your siding if not performed correctly and may not prevent future mold and algae growth. At All Softwash & Power Washing Company, we recommend soft washing instead. This method uses gentle pressure to thoroughly clean your surfaces without risking damage or removing paint. Additionally, our cleaning solution sanitizes the surface to help prevent future growth of mold and algae, ensuring a long-lasting clean.

How Do You Clean My Home?

At All Softwash & Power Washing Company, we use a method known as “Soft Wash” to clean your home. This technique involves low pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions and the gentle force of a garden hose. Our fully equipped work trucks are capable of reaching and cleaning homes from one story up to four stories high, all from the ground. We avoid using high-pressure power washing on your siding to ensure a safe and effective clean.

How Often Should I Have My House Washed?

Typically, house washing should be performed every one to two years, depending on factors like the amount of shade your siding receives. Homes in areas with extreme weather or those prone to moss and algae may require more frequent cleanings. We’re happy to discuss your specific situation and provide tailored advice on how often you should schedule house washing for optimal results.

How Do You Determine the Price for House Washing?

Our pricing for house washing is based on several factors, including the extent of the work required, the type of service needed, and the square footage of the area to be cleaned. We always provide a detailed discussion of the pricing with you once we have all the necessary information, and we ensure you are aware of the final cost before any work begins.

Pressure Washing

What Surfaces Can You Pressure Wash?

We can pressure wash any flat outdoor surfaces, including driveways, pavers, patios, and decks. However, it’s important to avoid pressure washing vertical surfaces or delicate materials such as house walls and roofs. Using high pressure on these surfaces can cause significant damage, which may require complete replacement of the affected materials.

How Do You Determine the Price for Pressure Washing?

Our pricing for pressure washing projects is calculated based on the total square footage of the area to be cleaned. We start by measuring the space to determine its size and then use this measurement to establish the cost. This approach ensures that you are charged fairly according to the size of the area that requires cleaning. We’ll provide a detailed estimate before starting any work, so you know exactly what to expect.

How Often Should Pressure Washing Be Done?

For most residential properties with typical traffic and weather exposure, pressure washing is generally needed once a year. However, if you notice dirt or stains building up more frequently, you can schedule additional cleanings as needed. Regular maintenance can help minimize the frequency of pressure washing and keep your property looking its best throughout the year.

Roof Cleaning

Is Pressure Washing Bad For My Roof?

Yes, pressure washing can be harmful to nearly any type of roof and may even void your roof warranty. To avoid potential damage, we use a specially designed low-pressure treatment process that effectively cleans your roof while preserving its integrity. Our method is gentle on your roofing system and fully backed by the manufacturer for long-lasting results.

How Do You Clean My Roof?

Our roof cleaning process begins with removing large moss clumps and loose debris. We then apply a cleaning solution using the gentle pressure of a garden hose to sanitize the roof and eliminate moss and algae. Over the next few months, rain and wind will naturally wash away any remaining dead moss particles. This method ensures no damage to your roof, keeping it in great condition.

For metal roofs, we use low pressure to clean them thoroughly on the same day. If you have a tile roof and prefer an immediate clean, we offer pressure washing for specific projects. Contact us for more details and to discuss your options.

How Do You Price Roof Cleaning?

The cost of roof cleaning depends on factors such as the extent of discoloration or algae deposits and the total square footage of the roof. Additionally, the type of roof can affect the pricing. We ensure transparency by providing a detailed and precise quote before starting any work. Contact us to discuss your specific needs, and we’ll be happy to give you an accurate estimate for your roof cleaning project.

What Should I Expect After My Roof Is Treated?

After treating your Asphalt or Tile roof, you might notice some dead white moss remaining. This is normal, as we intentionally leave a small amount of moss to avoid the harmful effects of pressure washing or wire scraping. Instead, we use a gentle broom to agitate loose moss and apply a solution that eliminates any remaining growth. Over the next 3 to 6 months, the rest of the moss will naturally fall off. This method is safe, effective, and ensures your roof remains in excellent condition for the long term.
